Bug#35516: choosing a different compiler

[greek_bill at yahoo.com]

Package: kdevelop
Version: 2.0.2 (using KDE 2.2.0 -11)
Severity: wishlist
Installed from:    Red Hat Linux 7.2
Compiler:          gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.1 2.96-98)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.4.7-10
OS/Compiler notes: 

I've looked but I don't think there is a way to choose a different a different compiler or a different version of gcc.

For examlpe, Red Hat 7.2 comes with gcc 2.9.x and 3.0.x.

By default gcc 2.9.x is being used by all applications. However, from within KDevelop I want to use gcc3!

I can change the makefile, but then KDevelop overwrites it!

If there is a way to do this, could you please let me know?

Thanks,
bill
